Abany, NY Petrofuture...
The Petrofuture series reimagines our memories, altering the tropes of nostalgia. These maps take on the promotions of petro-corporations, turn them around, depicting the ultimate consequences of car culture and the burning of fossil fuels.

This semester, I'm a guest lecturer for a worldbuilding class at USC School of Dramatic Arts.

I use real-world places to create fictional geographies. In this case, I've cobbled together a few Venezuelan #tepuis to create an archipelago...these are a couple of test renders based on the map.

Remember--Islands are mountains.

This semester, I'm collaborating teaching a worldbuilding class at the USC School of Dramatic Arts.

I'll be showing the class techniques for creating fictional places from real geographies. I've cobbled together a few Venezuelan #tepuis to create an archipelago...this is the draft map.
